  How Power BI’s AI capabilities help OEMs optimize production planning? OEM pressure for the improved quality of products at faster speeds and lower costs with less waste is intense. But instead of producing predictable demand, unpredicted downtimes, fragmented data, and quality issues, profit is undermined.  Power BI fully utilizes AI-driven analytics and proves to be the game-changer  Manufacturing (OEMs) . Instead of just raw data, Power BI promises actionable insights such as demand forecasting, downtime prevention, data silo unification, and broadens the quality scope. In this blog, we take you through the journey of leveraging this capability to optimize production planning, reduce costs, and outperform competitors. Unpredictable Demand Fluctuations Problem Demand unpredictability is one critical issue faced by OEMs across industries: Inventory imbalances leading to stock outs or excess inventory (estimated at an average of 25% of inventory value per annum) Product...

  Automating freight audit and payment with Power BI: Reducing errors and delays In modern  logistics , freight auditing is a time-consuming and costly task when done manually. Large freight invoices can conceal costly errors. Each carrier invoice is reviewed manually, and the process is slow and prone to errors. Decision-makers are left with unquestioned mistakes resulting in surprise costs, late fees, and strained carrier relationships. Big companies are now digitizing the freight audit and payment process through business intelligence tools such as Microsoft Power BI. By pulling data from shipping, TMS, and accounting systems into interactive dashboards, Power BI brings audit metrics to life in real time, therefore turning a reactive manual process into a proactive management function. This post looks at just how these dashboards plus automation can reduce mistakes and costly delays in freight auditing. The Invisible Costs of Manual Freight Audits Manual freight auditing re...

  Optimizing energy consumption in manufacturing with Power BI dashboards Energy accounts for a major portion of  manufacturing businesses’  overhead costs, with direct impacts on their bottom lines, and leads to an environmental footprint. Today, where manufacturing is a competitive arena, being able to optimize the use of energy is no longer an environmental perspective but a critical business perspective for being profitable and competitive.  Power BI  dashboards provide manufacturing companies with the right mechanism to reflect on, analyze, and optimize their use of energy so that they can view raw data in a meaningful way to generate insights for increasing efficiencies and reducing costs. The Silent Profit Killer: Energy Waste in Manufacturing Most enterprises in manufacturing consume between 15,000 and 25,000 kWh of energy per annum, but this will vary significantly with the diameter of a business, nature of the industry, and patterns of operations. The ...

  Improve reverse logistics and returns management with Power BI analytics Reverse logistics-the process of managing products as they move backward through the supply chain-has undergone a major transformation, from being considered a back-office activity to becoming a major business issue. With the growth of online shopping, this return volume is also explosively increasing, throwing tremendous operational challenges at different businesses across industries. For many retailers and  manufacturers , being able to manage returns properly can mean the difference between profit and loss. The return journey has to be as convenient as the buying one for today’s customers. Behind that chic and seamless experience lies a complicated mesh of processes many companies are hard-pressed to even time-optimizing. This is where Power BI analytics comes into play-in transforming the way companies manage, analyze, and optimize their reverse logistics operations. The Problem: Why Reverse Logist...
